Not sure if this fits better into general hardware or into Matrox hardware...
There is a quite well-done article at tecchannel, comparing 50 gfx-cards (Unfortunately in german, but the table with the results listing the cards from worst to best is self explaining) - with a not very surprising result: the G550 took the top position, especially the GF2/4MX variants came out at the worst positions.
Other interesting findings: as stated by some people here earlier, the G450 is not really top with respect to 2D signal-quality and the Radeon8500 while still under the better cards has lower signal-quality than the old Radeon64DDR (which is corresponding with my own findings).
Another thing to note is that ATIs FireGL pro cards do seem to have quite a bit better signal-quality then the consumer R8500, interesting also that Hercules' R8500 based cards are beating the ATI R8500 easily.
In the new c't (the best german computer magazine) there is another article about image-quality of NVidia GF4 Ti cards. Out of 19 tested cards, 18 got a "mediocre" or "bad" rating! Only the VisionTek Xtasy Ti4600 got a "good"...
